Pay and AI exposure
What the home health aides salary does not tell you
Salary measures what the market pays home health aides today. It says nothing about how durable that pay is as AI reshapes the work. Home Health Aides currently sit at 29/100 on the AI exposure scale, in the low exposure band. A well-paid role can still be highly exposed: the question is which layer of the work you occupy.
The country differences below are wage-level effects, not exposure differences. AI compresses the same routine layer of home health aides work in every market. To see where your own position sits and what shifts it, run the free structural reading or model the dimensions in the simulator.
